When the managing editor o f the
Clay ville News opened his paper at
breakfast one morning and looked for
the weather report he found In Its
place a modest notice stating that the
circulation o f the News was the largest
o f m ir paper in the city. Now, this
fact was Interesting to the managing
editor, but It was not what he wanted
to riniti. H e was looking for the proph­
ecy o f the we».liier bureau, winch was
telegraphed each night from a neigh

page to the end o f the last one on the
final page, could be find any comments
;.:i the weather. He folded the paper
deliberately, swearing softly to him­
self. and fifteen minutes later he con­
fronted young Elton, the telegraph edi­
tor.
‘ T he weather report,” said the latter,
with the air o f excusing the bureau,
•did not come last night.”
“ A h !” said the managing editor dr;
“ No, sir,” went on the telegraph edi
tor. “ I held the paper till
o’clock
waiting for It, but for some reason it
failed to come.”
“ A h !” said the managing editor
again. Then his anger burst forth, and
he raved as became a man who held re­
porters and editors under his thumb.
“ I suppose,” he concluded sarcastic­
ally. “ that It never occurred to you to
‘fake’ a report, to realize that any
guess on the weather was better than
none, to appreciate the comments the
Times w ill make on the Incident, to
imagine the disappointment o f e vfry
one o f our readers. Why, you fool, do
you suppose any one would have
known that your guess was not a relia­
ble report even if it differed from that
o f the Times? Do you” — H e stopped
suddenly, turned on his heels and wont
out the door, with the remark, “ Don’ t
let it happen again!”
Young Fitou stared at the ceiling for
a good fi\e minutes. Then he went
over to his desk with the mail and
straightway forgot all Ids troubles in
reading a dainty, scented note. She
said some very nice things to 1 dm and
asked how be was farin g In his work.
The weather report failed to come
that night.
Young Elton prepared
some slips o f paper with various
weather conditions written on them
end then drew one cautiously. It said,
• Rain today; colder.”
The managing editor read It the next
morning jyid wondered if it were reli­
able. It was not. A ll day a warm
•viral blew gently from the south, and
i blue sky and u hot aun smiled genial*
•}*•
Three nights later the message failed
again, and young Elton guessed It
would be fair. The next day the great-
-t rain o f the season poured down
from early morning till late at night.
Young Elton’s face was beginning to
grow careworn.
In desperation he
went to the girl nml told her the whole
story.
“ So fa r uiy guesses have been all
wrong.” lie confided. “ Now, I have a
ohm that certainly deserves success.
It’s simple, you.understand. I am go­
ing to drop in and see you for a minute
nr two each evening about dinner time,
if 1 may. and I shall gauge my guesses
by your demeanor. I f you are very
cordial I shall say the next day w ill be
clear. I f you are not so glad to see in

find you bored by lu r riaits the repor
will say r a w i.nr yvm understand?”
The girl did, and though she sug­
gested the possibility of fa ir weather
every day young Elton decided to try
tig. pine
’ i : grinned cheerfully and
went hack to the office and wrote the
report, “ Fair today, with southerly
winds.” And, although the Times
promised rain, the next day was cloud­
less and warm.
It wos very clear for a week, during
which time young Elton was called
upon to guess the weather conditions
several times. The rival paper seemed
to be steadily wrong, and the uinnng-

The fifteen century pilgrim. Felix

scription o f the camel:
“ A camel lias a small head and Is
without horns. It has big and terrible
eyes and always seems a sorrowful and
troubled animal.
Its eyes are like
fire beacon*, and big reflections shine
In them, for whatever a camel looks at
seems great and lm rc to It. wherefore
It seems to view everything with won­

When, therefore, a
man goes up to It the l>o?st begins to
tremble, so that the man perceives that
the beast trembles because the uinn
coming toward It seems to it to ho four
times bigger than he really Is. Had
not <»od so ordered it this a r m ’ 1 would
not be so tame and orderly as It Is.

A congressman from a northern

o f the political nonaetivlty o f a num­
ber o f his constituents whom he had
oeen intiuentiai iu placing in public
offices.
“ There is no ii 3 e talking,” he said,
“ this civil service business is a hum­
bug. I named four or five fellow s for
good jobs, and as soon as they got
warm in tlielr seats they snapped their
fingers at me.
They felt that they
were protected by the civil service and
made up their minds to lay down and
pot do any work.”
“ T h a t’s nothing to a fellow that I
had appointed,” said the other man,
who hailed from one o f the western
states. “ H e was worse than any of
your fellows.”
“ Why, what did he do?” inquired the
northerner.

The ancient Chinese believed that
music was o f divine origin and that it
was a g ift from tlie gods to man. An
cient Chinese instruments are o f very
neat workmanship. There is a small
violin colled ur-heen, which is made of
dark wood, the head covered with
snakeskiu. It is not ornamented with
any carved or inlaid designs, but it is
beautifully made, and the wood is pol­
ished very smooth.
There are only
tw o silken strings, tuned in fifths and
played on with a horsehair bow. A
three string banjo, also covered with
snakeskius, has a long neck, the top of
which, where the strings ure fastened,
being carved to represent a bat. There
is also a very ingenious mouth organ
called ti-tzu. The body is made of
wood, and in it are inserted seventeen
pipes.

fingers.
The Chinese are very fond o f drums,
which they call kou. The oldest drums
were c f baked clay, with a skin head
fastened on with nails instead of
braced cords, which made it impossible
to tune them as modern drums art
tuned. The variations o f tone were

Late the next afternoon young Elton

Some dairymen Lf*ve educated them­

filthy stables and manure plastered
cows, that they honestly do not know

a cleanly significance to them? It is
doubtful. Such men constantly excuse
themselves for their filthy surround­

any better. No doubt they think that
it Is really profitable to them to be
filthy; t!i t they are savins money by It.
But it is iJv.-.'vs to be noticed with
such farm ers that they do" not do any
more work in the field than the neat

It wns flic custom o f the old Spanish
explorers to name places after the
saint for whom was named the day
on which they can.ped there, lu this
manner a great number o f melodious
and sonorous Spanish names have
been scattered over California, so that
the names o f a great number o f places
begin either with “ San” or “ Santa.”
In some cases a subtitle, as It were,
lias been affixed.
For Instance, we
have San Luis Key and Snu Luis Obis­
po (Saint Louis the K in g aud Saint
Louis, the Bisliopi. also San Juan Ca­
pistrano. In the case o f Los .'*»i^eles,
!t was named “ Nuestra Señora de loa
Angeh**" (Our Lady o f the Angel»).
This name Is altogether too bulky for
frequent use. so the early officers short­
ened It to “ Angeles.”
One curious name among the saint»
is that upplied to a picturesque little
settlement on the divide between the
San Gabriel and Pomonn rnlleys—San
Dimas. San Dimas, be It known, was
one o f the tw o men who were crucified
nt either side o f Jesus—the one who
asked to be remembered by the Lord
when he should enter Into paradise.
He Is the patron saint o f robliers. The
way th l» name came to be given to
the Sail Gabriel valley village was
thus: In early days a gang o f Mexican
horse thieves had their “ lair” in a
canyon there, which was subsequently
referred to as the Bobbers’ canyon or
the canyon o f Ran Dimas. When the
Santa Fe rail mad caiue along amt
¡aid out the station there the name of
the canyon was adopted; hence San
